• Rich Hickey: For his ideas around managing data that led to Datomic.
• Scott Wlaschin: For his ideas on functional programming and domain-driven design.
• Rasmus Andersson: For doing great work in many different fields.
• Evan Czaplicki: For his thoughts on building UIs and his work on Elm.

• Hank Green: For his rational opinions on many different topics.
• Greta Thunberg: For standing up for what she (and I) believe in.
